(Continued from first page)
In the traffic enforcement progfam,
that speeders and parking violator*
ceased their arroganry ^^and became
peaceful law-abiding dnivers. Russell
wss on the job one buttdred per cent
and this fact soon l^came apparent
to careless drivers—especially after
they had paid on the nose for viola
tions.
What is needed on the police force
right now Is a traffic officer with the
alertness of Russell. Tfkfflc and
parking laws have become something
to be laughed at under present condi
tions. Many people who have occasion
to drive down to th* post office area
evenings to mail letters have found
that the five minute parking limit
area becomes an all-evening parking
area.
Mayor McCorkle state* that he has
conferred with Chairman J. B. Roas
of the police commlsaton and Chief
of Police Alva Roah and both of thaaa
gf^lemen are In favor of securing
a special traffic officer In the effort
to curb the present wave of traffic
regulation disregard and disrespect
